Help Mori Guys !!!
We have a new-to-us (90's-vintage) Mori MV-40B with MF-M4 (Fanuc 16M) control. It is equipped with a spindle oil chiller that alarms every
10 minutes. (The thermal overload inside the chiller unit for the compressor trips indicating the compressor is failing.) Initially we will be running low rpm
spindle jobs (sub 3K rpm) so we can live without the chiller at least in the short term. We'd like to disable the chiller via PC parameter.
However, the list is all in Japanese so we can't tell if there actually is a PC parameter that defines the Use/Non-use of the chiller like
most mtb's give you.
Is the chiller function only to cool the headstock to reduce thermal growth or does it lubricate a gearbox too?
Can someone (Underthetire? Where he at !?) advise if this possible and what PC parameter we'd need to disable?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
